I think that it's interesting that you classify 1024x768 as a 'small' display. Though it may be smaller than yours (I know it's smaller than mine), You can see here that it's the most widely used screen resolution.
But to answer your question: I'm sure there's ways to do this in CSS with some clever coding. You could different stylesheets for different browsers, fluid margins and fun stuff like that. As for me, seeing that the (basically) smallest resolution used is 800x600, I try to create my websites with a maximum width of 800 pixels. Either that, or I use a fluid width.
But I really don't know why you're afraid of the scrollbars. Just about no matter what, you'll have users that will see them. Some people browse with their window smaller than their screen, some people just have really small displays. So don't worry about them. They were made for a reason, there's really no way you can avoid them, so try to use them to your advantage.
